    Anytime I take anything to trade in, for example, I took some common zoa frags, about 15-20 polyps each, they gave me $10 credit each. I had absolutley nothing in them so I told Greg (the owner) to just give me half of the credit. He was really doing me a favor taking them cause I was getting rid of them to free up tank space cause Im trying to downsize a little.

    The zoa's in your pic Swag, I would toss. They will decay. I didnt know they had sat out of water for a few days, they were dried out instead of being drained.

    no im assuming double. but maybe less this lfs makes its money running tanks for people. selling fish is just kinda a side business they don't really rely on it.

    reef safe. locally they are abundant, we call them black legs...although I don't think that will help you much.

    I have personally witnessed the "black legs" kill a snail for its shell, and then it realized the shell was too big for it, it left the shell where it killed the snail. There were 2 crabs originally attacking the snail. I seperated them and one came back.
